 * By default the posts are ordered from oldest to newest. I want to reverse it,
   so newest posts are always displayed first.
 * I can’t find any control to change it – have I overlooked it?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdate-order-for-posts%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@spacekadet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spacekadet/),
 * Sorry for the late reply.
 * If you mean comments, then you can change the sort direction in the section “
   Settings -> Discussion -> Other comment settings”.
 * You need to change the setting “Comments should be displayed with the older/newer
   comments at the top of each page”.

 * Marking as resolved. Feel free to reopen this topic, or create a new one if you
   have another questions.
